SALE OF THE 1T. 6 c. ". RAILROAD.

A controlling interest in the stock of the Hartford and Connecticut Western road was transferred at New York last Friday to the syndicate of New York and Philadelphia capitalists who are identified with the construction of the Poughkeepsie bridge. The price which the syndicate pay for the stock is 5O.
 The ambitious scheme of this syndicate Is to form a new and shorter au-rail route from New England to the west.
 The plan is to have the Boston and Lowell people extend the Massachusetts Central railroad to Springfield, Mass.
 to meet an extension of the Connecticut Western from Tariffville. A short line will be built out from Red Hook, N. ' .,
 to the Poughkeepsie bridge. It is said that this line will bring the South and West 100 miles nearer New England than any other route and that it will control the Pennsylvania coal business,
 and the cotton, live stock and grain bus mess from the South and West. The western end of the new line will cross the Erie, Ontario and Western, New York, Susquehanna and Western. Le- hige Valley, Jersey Central and Read ing roads. X line is to be built imme- diately by the syndicate from point on the west side of the Hudson opposite the Poughkeepsie bridge, winch will cross the Delaware at Portland and go to point in the Pennsylvania anthra- cite coal regions, 200 miles from Ca naan, Conn.,, the junction of the H. X c. w. and Housatonic railroads.

LETTER FROM FLORIDA.

Eiitor of Ners:-
 The NEWS comes regularly every week, this, with the many letters We receive from friends in Canaan and other places, keeps us pretty we'll posted. It hardly seems possible to us that the snow is flying where these swift-wlnged messengers come from, while the mercury is ranging among the nineties here, only thousand miles farther south. No -ain to speak of has fallen h gre within the past two months and vegetation begins to show the want of 1t.
 The orange and peach are now in full bloom and strawberries are in the markets. The strawberry, the queen of the small fruits, is being extensively cultivated in Florida. The plants are set in September and fruit profitably from January to late in May. Straw berries net from $500 to $500 an acre, besides affording large profit from sale of plants. The most approved varie- ties are the Newman and Noisette seed ling. They are not as plenty as oranges; do not have them on the table twice a day, but cannot tell what may happen when they get plenty and cheap, price now from 75 cents to S1.OO per quart.
 I took stroll down on the wharf yesterday found some parties engaged in fishing for catfish they hooked one that would weigh 15 pounds. One of the party said he caught one last week weighing 40 pounds. They are the same as we call bullheads north, though somewhat larger; the large ones north are more often found on the tdad, wandering about seeking whom they may devour I am told, on the Indian River, the present denizens place a lantern in a small boat at night and TOW softly out into the river; attracted by the light. enough fishes will jump into the boat to make a small family break fast Shad are caught in the St Johns river Tn large quantities a car load was shipped to northern markets from here last week. They are much like the Conn. River si, ', good eating, though now and then l. ne, which If too many arc swallowed Will prevent rising on the stomach.
 Since writing you some two weeks ago, we have made a trip farther south, to Maitland, 100 miles-more or less up the river. At the Park House We found MT and Mrs E. X. Chatfeld. MT and Mrs Shares and others, from New Haven A very pleasant party indeed, vasss conpAny ws enjoyed very much
